Call-blocking to finally make its way to the iPhone with iOS 7

A feature that’s been missing in iOS for quite some time is set to finally make its way to Apple’s mobile platform with its most recent version.

Call-blocking in iOS 7 will not only block calls, but also prevents messages and even FaceTime calls from numbers you add to the list.

It’s anyone’s guess why iOS was missing such a basic feature for so long, but it’s good to see Apple finally doing something about it.
